Hello Michael,
The foundation of our electoral process lies in the integrity of our voter rolls and how our ballots are printed and mailed.
My goal is to ensure that the management of voter rolls and the printing of ballots is all done in-house, bringing with it greater accountability, minimized risk of errors, and a secure foundation for our elections.
All 67 Florida Supervisors of Elections outsource voter roll maintenance, management, and the printing and mailing of ballots. Here are my two main concerns:
1.) All voter roll maintenance and management is outsourced to a single company, VR Systems. We cannot guarantee that registrants that not longer belong on the voter rolls are being removed, exacerbating the opportunity for cheating and fraud.
2.) There is no way to provide a secure chain of custody of the ballots when a limited number of print shops print all of the ballots for all of the Supervisors of Elections in Florida.
My proposal would guarantee that the Supervisors of Elections print ballots internally and oversee voter roll maintenance themselves. It's time to take a stand to ensure our elections are as fair, transparent, and secure as possible.
We need your support to make this vision a reality. Please take a moment to sign our official petition calling for the ban on outsourcing of voter roll maintenance and management in Florida!
